at Changers Hall, last evening, was largely

of the weather. every seat being occupied
and numbers OF ladies remained standing
throughout the rendering of the pro-
gramme of the evening. Grand Dictator
Stearns of San Francisco, Grand Reporter
Curry, and Past Grand Dictator Barnes
were unusually happy i'll their remarks.
Mr.. Barnes fairly convulsed his audience
by his witticisms, and frequently caused the
eye to moisten by his pathetic references.

dered:

mel; piano opening voluntary, Miss Fanny
Atwood; recitation, Miss Katie Aiken,
"Why He Would Not DIE" vocal solo,

II. F. DILLMAN, Chief OF Police,
Board of Pnlicn Commission
Deatb of an old saoramentan.

News was received here last night of the
death of VIM F. Lyon, at Adrian, Michi
gan, at the age of rs. Mr.. Lyon was the
father of William N. and George F. Lyon
of this city. Mr.. lyon came to California
in 1850, coming to Sacramento direct, where
he lived a number of years. He went to
San Francisco and engaged in business
there, and later at Petaluma. He returned
to Sacramento in 1860, and began business
as a produce and commission merchant in
partnership with his son, VIM. NJ. Lyon,
the firm title being Lyon & Son. In 1871
he left the firm and returned to the East,
where he resided until the time of his
death. He was well and favorably
known in this city as q bust
ness man, but even more so as
an advocate of liberal thought In
connection with such men as the late
J. e. P Weeks. and with Josiah Johnson,
Ferdinand Woodward and others, he aided
in founding and maintaining for long
time progressive lyceum of free debate,
which was for some years prominent
Liberal Thought Society. While living in
Sacramento he wrote work entitled
+" The Hollow Globe" which on his return
to the East he published. He wrote and
published also, The Gospel of Nature"
and other works, and was correspondent
for liberal papers and lectured as a free
thinker here and throughout the East.
He was a studious man and the chief work
of his life concerned free thought sub
iects. He was raised as a Quaker, was
ordained to preach in the Methodist
Church, but went over to the school of his
later life from conviction, and was ever
afterwards its earnest advocate He will
be remembered by all old residents most
kindly

Burylarious Visit.

Some time Sunday night or early yester-
day morning, the clothing store of G.
Politz, at Sixth and K streets, was entered
by burglar or burglars, who climbed over
the alley fence and got into the courtyard
in the rear of the store, then putting empty
boxes in pile, they were able 10 reach the
roof of a shed, from which they proceeded
to the roof of the store A pane of glass
was then removed from the skylight, and,
by the aid of piece of rubber hose, one of
the burglars slid down into the store and
provided for egress by opening the back
door. The rascals were evidently fright
ened away before they were ready TO leave,
and consequently all the goods missing are
few silk handkerchiefs but several hun
dred dollars worth of the best goods in the
store were placed near the back door, in
sacks, to be carried away, after the estab-
lishment had been thoroughly looked over.
The drawers in the counting-room were
broken open in search for valuables.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Jacobs, the head
clerk, reached the store at D o'clock, but,
after opening the front door, concluded to
get his breakfast before making general
opening, and he accordingly went away
and did not return for about an hour. 1t
may be that the thieves were in the store
when he first opened the door, and ran
away before he came back; but it seems
hardly probable that they would make such
late visit, and think of carving bundles
of clothing, even in sacks, through the
streets at that hour.

The Charges Come to Naught.

In thePolice Court yesterday It. B. Nor
tee, clerk to the Sergeant-at-Arms of the
Senate, was tried for battery upon John s.
wilkins (colored). whom he stuck with a
cane in the hall outside of the Senate
Chamber at the Capitol last Friday after
noon, shortly after defendant and Sergeant
alarms Wilcox had elected him (Wilkins)
from the lobby of the Senate Chamber for
smoking. The evidence showed that VIII
kins had made remarks to the effect that
he was laying for" Mortee. When the
latter, having been informed of
threats against him, went out and
imputed Are you waiting for
me?" Wilkins made a motion
as if to draw a weapon, when Mortee struck
him with his cane, breaking it into two or
three pieces. Judge Buckley decided that
Mortee was not guilty of battery, having
acted in self-defense, and ordered his dis
charge. Sergeant-at-Arms Wilcox, who
had caused wilkins arrest for threats
against life, moved the dismissal of the
case, as a necessary witness had left town,
and he was not afraid Wilkins would carry
out the threats. The case was accordingly
dismissed Wilkins then intimated that
he did not see any possibility of his case of
battery against Wilcox being made to stick,
and his request to have it dismissed was
granted, thus disposing of the entire bust
ness.

State The through express train for Los
Angeles, FL Paso, New Orleans ETC., which

P. NJ, will leave at $3.50 A. NJ, connecting at
Lathrop with the train which leaves this
city at 11:30 A. N. The train which has left
Sacramento for the south at $40 P. NJ. will
hereafter leave at P. NJ, and connect at
Lathrop with train which will run
through to Los Angeles, stopping there.
The 11:30 A. NJ. train from Sacramento has
heretofore connected at Lathrop with
train which only went as far as Tulare, but
under the new arrangement there will be
two trains daily (neither of them Sundays
excepted'0 through to Los Angeles. The
train which has been arriving here over
the Western route at 2:25 P. NJ, will reach
the city at 80 bringing the New Orleans

vides for the running OF trains through to

terfere, the road will be open to that point,
the Yreka junction, to-day.

ACCIDENTALLY SHOT. Shortly after
o'clock last night Deputy Sheriff ]. O'Meara
was crossing the street from Wells, Fargo
& Co.'s office, and, as there was slight
rain falling, he concluded TO run. The
pavement was slippery and he made mis-
step, and during his effort to save himself
from falling his pistol fell from his pocket
to the ground and was discharged. The
ball struck him near the top of the calf of
the right leg, glancing upwards, and subse-
quently was found, by the surgeon sum-
moned to attend him, about four or five
inches above the knee. 1t did not break
any bones nor do serious injury, though
the wound will be painful for some time
and keep him confined to his house for a
week or two.

can throw away both their coal-oil lamps
and their fear of explosions. With street
lamps at S, T, U and V streets, ex-senator
Cox can go home without fear of being
waylaid by footpads and such. We learn
that new winery is to be built on the
block between r and s, Twenty-tirst and
Twenty-second streets shortly.

or less rain or snow at other points in the
upper portion of the State, and quite a

It's a Satisfaction to Have the Best.

Beyond the fact that it usually pays better,
there is certain satisfaction in buying Shoes
in knowing that one is getting as true and per-
feet an article as the world produces.
1t was in order to meet this feeling that
we sometime ago introduced full line of Mems
Shoes at So. For the most part they are
plain in style, but everything that science, skill
and the large resources can do in shoemaklng
is manifest in them. The lines are the finest,
the feathers the best, the Workmanship the
most fnished-in fact they more than rival the
best custom made work.
We carry these fine shoes in all widths
and lengths and in half dozen different styles
of toes and fastenings.

A mathematician has calculated
that not one in twenty OF the idle
men have trades. Probably no better
argument could be advanced to i'm
press upon parents the necessity of
giving their sons some trade. upon
which, at least, they could be depen-
dent, If all other resources fail.
Among many people, the prevailing
notion, (ifso it may be styled seems
to be that their sons should not soil
their hands with dirty machinery
and learn the trade Of mechanics.
They will lose caste. They must all
be either bank presidents, cashiers or
business men. It's more fashionable.
In the sham sense the mechanics
may lose caste. but never i'll the true
sense. For among them is generally
found that respect for the laws OF God
and man which is, sometimes, hardly
dreamed Of in upper tendon. Than
the mechanic profession or its sister,
the tiller of the soil, none more
honorable can be found. The social
istic idea of equality among all will
not be realized in either one genera
ton or for several more to follow.
Give your children a good, sound,
practical education, let them learn
some trade on which they can depend
Educate for utility and you will do
more good for the coming generation
thalscan be Accomplishment by any
amount of money.-Red Wing Re-
publican.
